The Paper Kites – have just announced their headline shows in the Limelight, Belfast & 3Olympia Theatre, Dublin

Beloved alternative folk band The Paper Kites have announced their seventh studio album, If You Go There, I Hope You Find It, arriving on January 23rd via Nettwerk Music Group. To herald the announcement they will be releasing their brand new single “Every Town,” this Friday. In support of the upcoming album, the band have also unveiled plans for their 2026 headline UK and European tour. Kicking off on February 17th at Limelight in Belfast, the tour also hits Dublin, Manchester, London, Paris, Amsterdam, Berlin, and more, before wrapping on March 7th at Rockefeller in Oslo, Norway. The Paper Kites headline show in the 3Olympia Theatre, Dublin on Wednesday 18th February 2026. 

If You Go There, I Hope You Find It features the band’s upcoming single “Every Town” and their recent single “When The Lavender Blooms,” recorded at Melbourne’s legendary Sing Sing Studios and mixed by multi-Grammy Award winner Jon Low (Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran, Gracie Abrams). Intimate and achingly reflective, the album is guided by a longing for connection, simplicity, and emotional clarity. Rooted in themes of nature, healing, and hope, each track unfolds like a whispered conversation, offering comfort in its vulnerability and calm in its sincerity. As it explores moments of change, introspection, and the beauty of imperfection, the record remains anchored in the band’s signature atmospheric sound. There’s a quiet familiarity that runs through the album, carrying a sense of return, or of arriving at a place that feels like home, both within and beyond yourself.
